Which of the following forest management practices keeps the forest in a state of mid to late succession?

Uneven-aged management retains trees of different ages and sizes, including mature trees, so the forest can remain in a mid- to late-successional condition. Clearcutting, even-aged management, and seed-tree cutting remove most or many mature trees and encourage younger, early-successional growth. The correct choice is “uneven-aged.”
